Spey Schools with Dana Sturn

Spey casting is a very effective way to cover water and allows anglers to make longer casts with less effort. It also enables anglers to fish in areas with no back cast, fish more easily in the wind and control the fly with precise mends. We are happy to coach you how to use a spey rod any time you fish with us and have a large selection of well-balanced spey rods for our anglers to use.

To offer you expert coaching and instruction, we are pleased to host professional casting instructor and spey casting guru, Dana Sturn for two Spey School weeks here at Z-Boat Lodge. Dana is Canada’s first FFF-certified spey casting instructor and hosts the webs biggest and best spey casting resource: www.speypages.com 

For anyone interested in learning or improving his or her spey casting, we highly recommend one of our Spey School weeks with Dana Sturn. You will enjoy a weeks guided fishing, including fly tying instruction, while experiencing Dana’s expert teaching and coaching.
